[PATCH v2 02/50] tracefs: fix a leak in eventfs_create_events_dir()

[Al Viro]

If we have LOCKDOWN_TRACEFS, the function bails out - *after*
having locked the parent directory and without bothering to
undo that.  Just check it before tracefs_start_creating()...

Fixes: e24709454c45 "tracefs/eventfs: Add missing lockdown checks"
